Were they with or without syrup?
A frustrated Toronto Maple Leafs fan who threw waffles on the ice at the Air Canada Centre will have to admire his team from afar.
Joseph Robb was charged with criminal mischief and barred from the arena for throwing waffles on the ice at a Maple Leafs game to protest the team’s performance this season. The 12-17-4 Leafs were 28th out of the NHL’s 30 teams entering Wednesday’s games.
Robb, of Oakville, Ontario, says he’s “just a normal Leafs fan, I love them to death.”

The waffles in question were uncooked Eggos, but we don’t know what flavor. No syrup was found on the offending waffles.
Robb has been banned from other sporting events because of his unruly behavior. He’s an out of control jerk, IMHO. Normal fans don’t throw uncooked food on the ice and disrupt games.
